Trackers 跟踪

Abstract 抽象

MASSIVE X's four Trackers are modulation sources that provide deep functionality for advanced MIDI control.
MASSIVE X 的四个跟踪器是调制源，为高级 MIDI 控制提供深度功能。

The four Trackers are modulation sources that provide deep functionality for advanced keyboard tracking. They map incoming MIDI control data like pitch and velocity to modulation that you can apply to any parameter. This enables you to exactly define how your sound responds to the MIDI input.
四个跟踪器是调制源，为高级键盘跟踪提供深度功能。它们将传入的 MIDI 控制数据（如音高和速度）映射到可以应用于任何参数的调制。这使您能够准确定义声音对 MIDI 输入的响应方式。

The Tracker's Tracking view allows you to view and create curves and offset values that represent the relationship between the MIDI input and the modulation produced by the Tracker. Each Tracker can be used with one of five available sources: Note Pitch, Velocity On, Velocity Off, Gate, and Inverse Gate.
跟踪器的跟踪视图允许您查看和创建曲线和偏移值，这些曲线和偏移值表示 MIDI 输入与跟踪器产生的调制之间的关系。每个跟踪器都可以与以下五个可用源之一一起使用：Note Pitch、Velocity On、Velocity Off、Gate 和 Inverse Gate。

As an example, you can use Note Pitch to define the response of your sound to the pitch values of incoming MIDI notes. When setting the Tracker's curve to a linear, rising ramp, it can be applied to parameters for standard keyboard tracking, meaning low notes produce low parameter values, and high notes produce high parameter values. In this case, the values produced by each MIDI note increase linearly across the keyboard, from left to right. By changing the Tracker's curve from a linear, rising ramp to other shapes or even adding irregular offsets to it, you can break up this relationship. For instance, inverting the curve to a falling ramp would result in high parameter values when playing low notes and vice versa, or adding extreme offsets to specific notes would produce high parameter values only when playing the corresponding keys.
例如，您可以使用音符音高来定义声音对传入 MIDI 音符的音高值的响应。当将跟踪器的曲线设置为线性上升斜坡时，它可以应用于标准键盘跟踪的参数，这意味着低音符产生低参数值，高音符产生高参数值。在这种情况下，每个 MIDI 音符产生的值在键盘上从左到右线性增加。通过将跟踪器的曲线从线性上升斜坡更改为其他形状，甚至向其添加不规则偏移，您可以打破这种关系。例如，在弹奏低音时，将曲线反转为下降斜坡会导致高参数值，反之亦然，或者仅在弹奏相应键时，向特定音符添加极端偏移量会产生高参数值。

You can access and assign the Trackers in the Editor via the Navigation Bar using the tabs labeled T1–⁠T4. For information about assigning the Trackers to parameters, refer to Assigning Modulation.
您可以使用标有 T1–T4 的选项卡通过导航栏在编辑器中访问和分配跟踪器。有关将跟踪器分配给参数的信息，请参阅分配调制。

Tracking View and Edit Modes 跟踪视图和编辑模式

The Tracking view is used to establish the relationship between the MIDI input on the horizontal axis and the Tracker's modulation output on the vertical axis. It can contain a curve, offsets, or a combination of the two. This determines not only how you interact with the Tracker, but also its modulation output.
跟踪视图用于在水平轴上建立 MIDI 输入与跟踪器在垂直轴上的调制输出之间的关系。它可以包含曲线、偏移或两者的组合。这不仅决定了您与跟踪器的交互方式，还决定了其调制输出。

The curve establishes the relationship between the MIDI input and the modulation output across the whole range. This is useful for generating modulation that responds to the MIDI input in a coherent way, adjacent MIDI input values will produce progressively changing modulation values. The shape of the curve can be set using any number of breakpoints, creating separate segments between them:
该曲线在整个范围内建立了MIDI输入和调制输出之间的关系。这对于生成以相干方式响应MIDI输入的调制很有用，相邻的MIDI输入值将产生逐渐变化的调制值。可以使用任意数量的断点来设置曲线的形状，并在它们之间创建单独的线段：
The offsets establish the relationship between specific values of the MIDI input and the modulation output. This is useful for generating modulation that responds to the MIDI input in very specific, or unexpected ways. Each MIDI input value can produce any modulation value, hence abrupt changes in modulation are possible from one MIDI input value to the next. The offsets can be painted in for each value individually:
偏移量建立MIDI输入的特定值和调制输出之间的关系。这对于生成以非常具体或意想不到的方式响应 MIDI 输入的调制非常有用。每个MIDI输入值都可以产生任何调制值，因此从一个MIDI输入值到下一个MIDI输入值的调制可能会突然变化。可以为每个值单独绘制偏移量：

You can switch between curve and offsets using the different Edit modes:
您可以使用不同的编辑模式在曲线和偏移之间切换：

Curve mode: Only the curve is active and can be edited. The following mouse interactions are available:

Using the Tracker to Apply Filter Tracking to a Sound
使用跟踪器将滤镜跟踪应用于声音

Filter tracking is a common feature found in synthesizer filters that forces the cutoff frequency to follow the pitch of incoming MIDI notes. When filter tracking is applied, low notes result in lower cutoff values, producing a darker sound. High notes result in higher cutoff values, producing a brighter sound. All resonant filters in MASSIVE X offer filter basic tracking.
滤波器跟踪是合成器滤波器中的一项常见功能，它强制截止频率跟随传入 MIDI 音符的音高。当应用滤波器跟踪时，低音会导致较低的截止值，从而产生较暗的声音。高音会导致更高的截止值，产生更明亮的声音。MASSIVE X 中的所有谐振滤波器都提供滤波器基本跟踪功能。

However, by using a Tracker to apply filter tracking to a sound, you can fully control the response to incoming notes. You can use this to intensify the effect or create chaotic behavior. It is also possible to invert the response. In this case, low notes produce a brighter sound, and high notes produce a darker sound.
但是，通过使用跟踪器将过滤器跟踪应用于声音，您可以完全控制对传入音符的响应。您可以使用它来增强效果或创建混乱行为。也可以反转响应。在这种情况下，低音产生更明亮的声音，而高音产生更暗的声音。

The following tutorial shows you how to apply filter tracking to a sound and change the response of the tracking:
以下教程介绍如何将滤波器跟踪应用于声音并更改跟踪的响应：

Open MASSIVE X and keep the preset Init - Massive X selected.
打开 MASSIVE X 并保持预设的 Init - Massive X 处于选中状态。
Set both the Freq and Res controls on the Asimov filter to noon.
将 Asimov 滤镜上的 Freq 和 Res 控件都设置为中午。
Select the Tracker T1 in the navigation bar to show it in the editor.
在导航栏中选择跟踪器 T1 以在编辑器中显示它。
For this workflow, set the Tracker to Note Pitch and Curve mode. The preset Init - Massive X already includes the correct settings.
对于此工作流程，将跟踪器设置为“注意俯仰和曲线”模式。预设的 Init - Massive X 已经包含正确的设置。
Drag and drop the arrow icon for T1 to the first modulation slot of the Freq control.
将 T1 的箭头图标拖放到 Freq 控件的第一个调制插槽中。
Click and drag the first modulation slot of the Freq control up to set the maximum modulation amount for the Tracker.
单击并向上拖动频率控件的第一个调制槽，以设置跟踪器的最大调制量。
Play some notes on your keyboard or a sequence in your host software. You can see the active note being highlighted by a vertical bar in the Tracker's Tracking view.
在键盘上播放一些音符或在主机软件中播放序列。您可以在跟踪器的“跟踪”视图中看到活动笔记由垂直条突出显示。
Tip
The curve in the Tracking view represents the values of the Tracker's modulation output (y-axis) for each MIDI note (x-axis).
“跟踪”视图中的曲线表示每个 MIDI 音符（x 轴）的跟踪器调制输出（y 轴）值。
Click on the curve in the Tracking view to create a new breakpoint.
单击“跟踪”视图中的曲线以创建新的断点。
Click and drag the breakpoint in any direction to adjust the curve and therefore the Tracker's response to incoming notes.
单击并向任意方向拖动断点以调整曲线，从而调整跟踪器对传入笔记的响应。
Repeat steps 7 and 8 to add a breakpoint in another position. By changing the position of the breakpoints, you can create a more extreme response to incoming notes. For example, by setting the breakpoints as shown below, the cutoff frequency rises strongly between notes C1 and C4, but stays at the respective value outside of this range.
重复步骤 7 和 8 以在另一个位置添加断点。通过更改断点的位置，您可以创建对传入笔记的更极端的响应。例如，通过设置如下所示的断点，音符 C1 和 C4 之间的截止频率会大幅上升，但会保持在该范围之外的相应值。
The cutoff frequency follows the pitch of incoming MIDI notes relative to the curve in the Tracking view. In the example above, notes lower than C1 produce a dark sound with the cutoff frequency at a minimum. Between C1 and C4, the sound becomes brighter with every note. Notes higher than C4 produce a bright sound with the cutoff frequency at the maximum.
截止频率遵循传入 MIDI 音符相对于“跟踪”视图中曲线的音高。在上面的示例中，低于 C1 的音符会产生暗音，截止频率最小。在 C1 和 C4 之间，每个音符的声音都会变得更亮。高于 C4 的音符会产生明亮的声音，截止频率最大。
To invert the response of the tracking, drag all breakpoints including the ones at the two ends of the curve fully up or down, respectively. Following the example above, the inverted curve is as follows:
若要反转跟踪的响应，请分别向上或向下拖动所有断点，包括曲线两端的断点。按照上面的例子，倒置曲线如下：
The cutoff frequency follows the pitch of incoming MIDI notes in an inverted fashion: low notes produce a brighter sound, and high notes produce a darker sound.
截止频率以倒置的方式跟随传入的 MIDI 音符的音高：低音产生更明亮的声音，高音产生更暗的声音。

Using the Tracker to Create Delay Time Variations in a Sound
使用跟踪器在声音中创建延迟时间变化

The Tracker's Offset mode can be used to make a sound respond to incoming MIDI notes in a very specific way. When combined with the Source Note Pitch, the modulation produced by the Tracker is defined independently for each note, by drawing in single values in the Tracking view. This is useful for fine-tuning a sound's behavior at specific pitches, or for creating anything from subtle to drastic sound variations across the keyboard.
跟踪器的偏移模式可用于使声音以非常特定的方式响应传入的 MIDI 音符。当与源音符音高结合使用时，通过在跟踪视图中绘制单个值，跟踪器产生的调制为每个音符独立定义。这对于微调声音在特定音高下的行为，或在键盘上创建从微妙到剧烈的声音变化非常有用。

The following tutorial shows you how to use Offset mode to recall defined delay time values when playing specific notes:
以下教程向您展示如何在弹奏特定音符时使用偏移模式调用定义的延迟时间值：

Open MASSIVE X and select the preset Advanced Optics.
打开 MASSIVE X 并选择预设的高级光学器件。
You can play the preset from your keyboard, however for this tutorial we recommend to program and play back a sequence of short notes with long pauses.
您可以从键盘播放预设，但是在本教程中，我们建议对一系列短音符进行编程和播放，并带有长时间的停顿。
Turn the FX macro fully clockwise to make the echo effect in this preset more pronounced.
顺时针旋转 FX 宏可使此预设中的回声效果更加明显。
Show the Stereo Delay effect by clicking on the Z Stereo Effect slot.
通过单击 Z Stereo Effect 插槽来显示立体声延迟效果。
Adjust the individual delay times next to the delay time fader to create a variety of rhythmic echo effects depending on the position of the control.
调整延迟时间推子旁边的各个延迟时间，以根据控件的位置创建各种有节奏的回声效果。
Select the Tracker T1 in the navigation bar to show it in the editor.
在导航栏中选择跟踪器 T1 以在编辑器中显示它。
For this workflow, set the Tracker to Note Pitch mode. The preset Advanced Optics already includes the correct setting.
对于此工作流程，将跟踪器设置为音符音高模式。预设的 Advanced Optics 已经包含正确的设置。
Enable Offset mode in the left area of the Tracker.
在跟踪器的左侧区域启用偏移模式。
Set the resolution of the Vertical Grid to 4 in the left area of the Tracker.
在跟踪器的左侧区域中将垂直网格的分辨率设置为 4。
Note 注意
By setting the resolution to 4, the Vertical Grid corresponds to the number of available values for the delay time control. This makes it easy to adjust the offset amounts in a meaningful way.
通过将分辨率设置为 4，垂直网格对应于延迟时间控制的可用值数。这样可以很容易地以有意义的方式调整偏移量。
Drag and drop the arrow icon for T1 to the first modulation slot of the delay time control.
将 T1 的箭头图标拖放到延迟时间控件的第一个调制槽中。
Click and drag the first modulation slot of the delay time control up to set the maximum modulation amount for the Tracker.
单击并向上拖动延迟时间控件的第一个调制槽，以设置跟踪器的最大调制量。
Play back the previously programmed sequence in your host software. You can see the active note being highlighted by a vertical bar in the Tracker's Tracking view.
在主机软件中播放先前编程的序列。您可以在跟踪器的“跟踪”视图中看到活动笔记由垂直条突出显示。
Tip
The offsets in the Tracking view represent the values of the Tracker's modulation output (y-axis) for each MIDI note (x-axis).
“跟踪”视图中的偏移量表示每个 MIDI 音符（x 轴）的跟踪器调制输出（y 轴）值。
Click and drag the offset amount for one of the notes in the sequence to change the Tracker's response to this note.
单击并拖动序列中其中一个音符的偏移量，以更改跟踪器对此音符的响应。
Repeat step 12 for the other notes in the sequence. By changing the offset amounts, you can define the delay time for each note independently. For example, by setting the offset amounts as shown below, C3 recalls a delay time of 1/8 (first value of the control), D3 recalls 1/16 (second value of the control), F3 recalls 4/16 (fourth value of the control), and G3 recalls 3/16 (third value of the control).
对序列中的其他音符重复步骤 12。通过更改偏移量，您可以独立定义每个音符的延迟时间。例如，通过设置如下所示的偏移量，C3 调用延迟时间为 1/8（控件的第一个值），D3 调用 1/16（控件的第二个值），F3 调用 4/16（控件的第四个值），G3 调用 3/16（控件的第三个值）。
The delay time responds to specific MIDI notes relative to the respective offset amount. In the example above, the notes C3, D3, F3, and G3 each recall different delay time values for a variety of rhythmic echo effects.
延迟时间响应相对于相应偏移量的特定 MIDI 音符。在上面的示例中，音符 C3、D3、F3 和 G3 分别调用了各种有节奏的回声效果的不同延迟时间值。
